Coffee. Java. Jo. No matter what you call it, over 1/3rd of the world's population consumes it.
(Scary that I took the time to find that out. )
I love the stuff. Straight black for me. The aroma is intoxicating.
Do you stop to savor the experience? I used to gulp it down without much thought- other than I totally love the smell of a coffee house or walking in the kitchen right after a pot is brewed.
Now, I select a range of flavors to keep in my cupboard, use bottled water (yes, it does make a huge difference as to what water you use to brew!) and enjoy only one (sometimes two) cups a day.
It's one of my stolen pleasures- reliable, comforting, delicious, warm...bliss.
A dear friend of mine travels with her coffee maker. I totally love that!
We all need to keep our comforts close and take the time to treasure them.
